we're on sandy point road. that fire has been burning since 9:00 and looks a lot better than it has in the past few hours as it starts to burn down, the house that was standing up there now burning to the ground. the problem that we had here was that fire personnel could not get there to chalker beach. chalker beach is surrounded by water and the floods there really put the water up about three to four feet and we're actually told it's still up three to four feet so what happened was a neighbor called in the fire saying that two homes were burning over there and that neighbor actually had to be rescued because the neighbor did not heed the mandatory evacuation order that was given for chalker beach. now, again, we are told that two homes were destroyed in that fire because firefighters couldn't get there. they actually tried to take an old army tank and get to that location, but the water was so high that the vehicle had some electrical problems and had to retreat. what we do know is that these are two summer h

as sandy battered the eastern sea board 6 million customers were left in pitch black. that swath of the eastern united states essentially totally blacked out over the course of one day. and at this hour, more than 6 million electricity customers remain without power in the east. when they say this is the largest storm to have ever hit the east coast of the united states, the word largest in that phrase actually just means the physical area that is covered by this storm, which you can see in the fact that we had outages from virginia to maine. but in terms of the direct hit of this storm, part of what makes this a storm of national significance is that when it came ashore, it hit the most populated place in our country. it's not just new york media dysmorphia. this is the most densely populated region of the country. new jersey's population is the most densely in the area. it is greater than the population of maine, new hampshire, montana, nebraska, north dakota, south dakota, and wyoming combined. all in a state that's significantly smaller than even just new hampshire
